Below are some of the issues this training video will cover. How to set up each step and why particular choices are made is also discussed:

CSMatchingMonitorToPrinter uses Photoshop CS. It shows you a workflow to get the colors you want from your printer and also for how to match that printer output to your monitor. It helps you to make sure you are using the correct print dialogs with Photoshop CS and your Epson printer. This workflow uses Photoshop Adjustment layers and Action scripts to change the printer output so it more accurately matches your monitor and is also more neutral. All you need to try the calibration technique described in this video is Photoshop CS (or CS2), the correct Epson, 3rd party or Bill Atkinson profiles for your printer/paper/ink combination, a Macbeth Color Checker chart (about $75 at professional camera stores), and a working monitor calibrator from Color Vision, Monaco or Gretag Macbeth. I use Color Vision Spyder2Pro or Optical with the original Spyder but Monaco Optics or Gretag EyeOne Display also work great for monitor calibration. Each of these products is between $200 and $300.

BEFORE YOU BUY A VIDEO, click here (see the two paragraphs below for how to click) on CameraRawSmartObjects to download and try our free 8 minute video that shows you how to embed Camera Raw files into Photoshop CS2 layers as Smart Objects. This is a great new feature of Photoshop CS2 that I originally learned from Artistry co-author Sean Duggan. DON'T BUY BEFORE YOU TRY THIS FREE VIDEO FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW! If this video works on your computer, then the ones you pay for should also work.

ON THE MAC using Explorer if you click and hold on the above CameraRawSmartObjects then you'll get the option "Download Link to Disk". This option asks you where to save the video on your hard disk. After saving it, you can then play it with Quicktime, which comes with the Mac. This same click and hold technique also works using Netscape on the Mac but the option there is called "Save Link Target As". In Safari on the Mac, you need to click on the above CameraRawSmartObjects and it will begin playing within a window. When it has finished playing (and/or downloading) you can then click and hold down the mouse button on the middle of the window where it played then you'll get the option named "Save as Quicktime Movie" in a pop-up menu allowing you to save the file. It can then be played again using Quicktime. Mac users have had no problems downloading and playing these videos.

ON WINDOWS using Internet Explorer, use the right mouse button to click on the above CameraRawSmartObjects then choose the "Save Target As" option to save this file on your desktop or in a known location. You can then hopefully play it using Quicktime 7 or Windows Media Player 10. The high quality video compression format used with these videos doesn't play on some PCs, even newer ones, without your installing the correct software (player and/or CODECs) to play them. Some PCs don't come with Quicktime 7 or Windows Media Player 10 or the correct CODECs to play these videos and THESE VIDEOS DON'T PLAY PROPERLY ON SOME PCs. If the above CameraRawSmartObjects video doesn't work properly on your PC then don't buy the others and then complain that they don't work. TEST THE FREE ONE FIRST! All PCs are different, there are thousands of configurations and manufacturers, and that is why we have the free test video.
